I'm Damaris. I have a soulmate, three kids, two citizenships, one full time job. I don't have a lot of time, a perfectly clean house, or a stylish wardrobe. Around here we tend to focus on the positive, so please ignore the mess, the sporadic posting, and all the little imperfections. We just take it one day at a time. One kiss at a time. One idea at a time. This blog is a glimpse of my heart, of what I love and cherish most. It just so happens that most of it revolves around the greatest thing on earth; food!

So I did a food tag a while back and today I tracked down the recipe's that people shared from my food tag. The three I could find were from Kristen, Mariko (private blog), and the LATU-VAKI FAMILY

here are the recipe's that they posted. Yum and thanks for sharing.

Mighty’s Bi Bim Bap Makes 2This is my current obsession. I was wanting to eat out a lot so that I could get this dish. It’s Korean, so I can’t really claim it, but this is what I realized I could make on hand at my house. I went to the Korean market to get the kolchugang sauce, but I think it can be found pretty easily. And if you don't like hot sauce anyway, you don't need it. I think it adds good flavor, though.

1. Marinate meat for about 1-2 hours beforehand2. Cut meat up into small pieces and fry in a pan quickly (so that the meat cooks fast without losing a lot of water).3. Saute carrot and zucchini in a little sesame oil-- add sesame seeds during the last minute. Season with a little salt. Cook until just barely done.4. Fry eggs, leave yolks uncooked.5. Put rice in bowls for serving6. Arrange carrot/zucchini/sesame seed mix on 1/3 of the top, 1/3 beef pieces, 1/3 cucumber. Place egg on top. Put desired amount of hot sauce and stir the whole mixture together before eating.*You can also put in some cooked, chopped up spinach or other vegetables.*if you have Korean seaweed, cut into strips and add on top

Oreo cake.

Just prepare a regular white cake mix from a box. The ones that say extra pudding in the mix or extra moist of course are the yummiest.Then crush up some oreo cookies in a bag and then mix them in the cake mix. Bake as directed on box.Frost with homemade butter cream frosting or heck, even the stuff in the jar at the supper market is good stuff.Decorate top with cookies!Enjoy! Simple, Fun, and of course very tasty. Great for kids birthday parties!

Cilantro Lime Dressing and Pulled Pork(I shared this before but Kristen explains it in much simpler ways.)

This is sooooo yummy!Throw a pork butt (yes, I said pork butt, rump roast, whatever here in Hawaii they actually tag it pork butt :) into the crock pot. I just rub it down with salt/pepper and fresh crushed garlic, but you can also do salsa and some brown sugar. Crock it 3-4 hours on high or 8-10 hours on low.
